Nice hotel but always a little too warm!

I stay here quite regularly for work and usually dread the summer months as this hotel can be quite stuffy at night. Fortunately the weather was crap for my recent visit but it's still far to warm in the rooms for a good nights sleep. For info, the temperature controls do nothing - AC is turned off in all rooms. Aside from that, the hotel is a very good standard with clean rooms and good facilities (breakfast is excellent)

Great hotel, but the entrance side of the building is a local late night party zone on Fridays and Saturdays nites. Such loud music till 3am made sleeping impossible.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Everyone was extremely helpful, friendly, and accommodating. The room was a bit on the tight side as getting around the bed with suitcases on the floor was a bit of a challenge, but we certainly managed. The evening light buffet was so helpful and a real bonus for the traveler who had put in a long day of sightseeing. The food was just excellent! I never saw so many choices of toppings for yogurt in my life! Definitely recommend this hotel.
